I have also run across Bart before (although I knew him as SSgt Kuebler.) He was my piano teacher at the Armed Forces School of Music when I joined the Navy in 2006. I discovered this blog recently, and having seen his name in a couple different places I wondered, then seeing another comment that he was in the Army band made it click.

I just ordered some cards. I think I did okay as far as the design and content of the card, but I think I might do something more interesting for the next batch.

Nice to see what others are doing!

Great post. The first business card is great, love the simplicity & humor. The idea of having a different business car for each talent is a good idea. It identifies your area of expertise and allows you to create a new image for each occupation.

Great post, David. Wanted to add a point I think I read on Seth Godin’s blog (it might have been Derek Sivers’) that will help us musicians quite a bit. In his post, he said “every time you use the word ‘and’ in what you do, you suck a little bit more.” His point: when we list everything we do on our business cards/websites, the perception of the reader is that we don’t do any one thing really well, but rather we are mediocre in the various jobs we list.

Since many of us do several things (i.e. producer, conductor, teacher, pianist, composer, arranger, programmer, etc.), it might better serve us to have several different business cards made––especially since they are so cheap (or even free)––to use at the appropriate times.

This post is a great resource! I’m currently looking to have business cards made for my quartet because we’re looking to start gigging around town. It’s actually a little daunting, seeing such a colorful sampling of other musician’s designs. We’ll have to put a lot of thought into our final design. It looks like eye catching, but tasteful is the way to go.
